The main level features vaulted ceilings with a large open eat-in kitchen with its own kitchen garden courtyard! and a half bath. Doors lead out to a covered bluestone patio and a second outdoor space strung with fairy lights looking out over the Hudson. A cozy sunken living room with custom upholstery and the original wood stone fireplace with a Wittus stove inset speaks to another time.
